About Watchdog Wire

After two years of being a platform for holding local and state governments accountable through the inspiring efforts of citizen watchdogs across the country, Watchdog Wire is joining the Franklin Center’s new project, Watchdog Arena.

WatchdogArena.org will be a news site powered by informed writers, bloggers, and citizen journalists. It will serve as a national publishing platform for articles that expose waste, fraud and abuse as well as examine a plethora of policy issues at all levels of government. For now, we’ve created a temporary landing page to display stories, but in early 2015, we will unveil the new Watchdog Arena portal, which will include ways for you to weigh in on the issues of the day.

Thank you to all of the citizen journalists who contributed to Watchdog Wire and its many supporters. We couldn’t have done it without you. To learn how you can get involved with Watchdog Arena, contact arena@watchdog.org.
